About the Practice

Our litigators pursue insurance recoveries for clients that need experienced insurance lawyers who are willing and able to be adverse to the biggest insurance carriers. Our clients (whether as the primary or the additional insureds) include corporations, claims administrators, insurance brokers, and individuals.  We have secured millions of dollars in coverage for our clients, often under flexible fee structures (including full and partial contingency arrangements).

Our experiences include evaluation of and pursuit of coverage under a wide range of policies, including commercial general liability, excess, property, directors and officers, professional liability, and representations and warranty policies.  Representative engagements include:

  • Securing a $14-million-dollar recovery for a corporate client on a representation and warranty policy issued in connection with a private equity acquisition valued at over $200 million.
  • Numerous successful efforts to establish additional insured coverage and procure a defense for manufacturing clients sued for events arising out of vendors’ acts or omissions.
  • Establishing coverage and procuring a defense for a timber company in suit related to silt deposits in streams and rivers.
  • Successful recovery of substantial insurance proceeds on behalf of a software vendor and payroll tax service provider that had been defrauded by theft committed by a third-party foreign contractor.
